Character History
"Future Hiro" travels back in time approximately 5 years to visit Peter Petrelli while he was on a subway train with Mohinder. By this point he speaks fluent English. Right before he arrives, time stops for everyone on the train except for Peter. "Future Hiro" says he's risking creating a rift in order to deliver an important message to Peter. He tells Peter that he must save the girl in order to prevent "it all" from happening. As he leaves he reiterates, "Save the cheerleader, save the world." He also tells him that when Hiro calls him he must tell him where they meet.
Powers
Like the present-day Hiro, future Hiro can manipulate space and time for a number of effects. It's likely that he has far better control of his abilities than does present-day Hiro. It's also unclear whether Peter was not frozen because of Hiro or whether he was mimicking Hiro's abilities himself. However, it's likely the former, as Peter was alone on the train for a few moments before Hiro appeared. If so, then future Hiro has displayed an ability which present-day Hiro has not.
